It is Friday. Yippee! I have been trying all morning to get packed and ready to ride my donkey out of here, but I can't stop watching Molly. She is so fantastic. Someone set up a Barn Owl Nesting box with cameras. Infra red and a regular camera. Mom named Molly and Dad named Mcgee are proud parents of 3 babies so far and maybe two more on the way. It is so cool to watch them. Mom is staying in the box and Dad goes hunting. When I got up this morning and saw McGee had brought in Bugs Bunny I didn't think I would be able to watch mom feed her babies. Well when she finally got around to eating Bugs I watched. It was so fascinating to see her pull big chunks off for her, fur and all and then pull teeny, tiny bites for her babies. You could see their little heads poke out from under her. She kept her wings spread so that they would stay protected from the cold. Just now she stood up to clean herself and it was cool to see her huge claws, they are capable of killing, yet so gentle around her kids. I love to listen to the peeping. Trying to figure out how I can ride my donkey and get internet at the same time so I can still watch them. WHY IS THERE ALWAYS ASSHOLES in this world. They have a running chat section next to Molly's cam. Someone keeps running spam, saying horrible things, and go to heavens something or other. Why do they get enjoyment out of trying to ruin something so neat. Once again I DON'T understand humans. Oh well I will need to get ready for my destination. It is cold outside today, so I had to rethink what I was going to wear.
Sis just came over for lunch,and left after her belly was full. It's OK because she was going to town to put money in my bank for me. I don't know what I would do without her. She is allot of help and we only have each other to depend on. Neither of us had kids to use as our servants. Now I'm sort of feeling guilty for picking on her when she was a kid. NOT! I would do it again. Mom waited long time between each kid. We are 8 years apart. Brother was 8 years older than me. She must have had a lot of thinking to do about having another kid. All though one of my cousins said I was an accident. Little sis was because of my step dad. That is OK, Mom loved us but she said if she had it to do again she never would of had kids. That sounds bad, but she was a worrier and was always scared of our future. Plus it was so hard on her with my brother being so sick. Back to picking on each other, I had to do it. I had to pass down what my brother dished out to me. One time he put his Devils costume in my closet, I almost had a heart attack when I opened the door. He asked me if I wanted to be hog tied, I said yes and he did and he left me laying in the middle of the floor. He knew mom would be home soon. Still can't figure out why she asked, What are you doing, it should have been clear to her that I was all tied up and she should have known who did it. When he got a convertible, I fell in love with it. He would say if you wash my car I will take you for a ride. I would jump right on washing the car and then he would just take me around the block, but I was young and that seemed just fantastic to me. Anyway he was always there to protect me, so that made up for it. I think part of the things he did to me was because he was born and lived down here till he was six and my parents moved to the north. So I think the teasing and picking is a southern thing. My uncles were just as bad, sometimes I wondered how I made it to my teens, and I remember Mom telling me the stories about her growing up down here with her Dad and uncles. Not that it is bad, most of my best memories from my childhood is the picking and teasing. Everybody is gone now and I miss all the fun and laughter, oh well, life goes on.
Well I better finish getting ready. Everyone have a Great Weekend.
